This one is a keeper for sure!! I love baking up loaves, especially now the summer is slowly coming to and end and fall will be on the way. Chocolate and peanut butter always go hand in hand in my kitchen and this loaf does not disappoint! The drizzled peanut butter topping is just like the icing on cake to finish it off 🙂 Makes 10 slices at only 4 smart points each.

What size loaf pan do you use? 8×4 or 9×5? Thanks!
standard, think its 9×5
Can the leftovers be frozen?
Yes absolutely 🙂
Made this yesterday and pretty much everyone loved it. Only issue was it was on the borderland dry. I’m guessing I left it in the oven a little to long.
Hi Jeffery, so glad everyone enjoyed it, could be a baking issue or maybe the banana’s you used were a little smaller, you can add in a pinch more applesauce next time to see if that helps
I substituted Lily’s chocolate chips, PB2 and Swerve brown sugar replacement to reduce the points down to 2pp on blue!!
Thanks for sharing Shari 🙂
I’m assuming when you say brown sugar you mean sugar alternatives like swerve?
Hi, no I mean brown sugar .. I do not use sugar alternatives but feel free to swap it out if you’d prefer
